stouffville tribune published every thursday- rate 200 per year 250 to the united states the butter question the financial post the dairying industry is actually on the decline in canada once we were a nation with a favorable balance ot trade in dairy products but today we are importing around 30000000 pounds of butter yearly the situation seems to reflect little credit upon the farmers of canada or upon the heads of the depart ments of agriculture throughout the provinces and at ottawa but it would be unwise and unfair to over look the difficulties faced by our producers dairying to be successful must be a large production proposition and an all year round success it is not possible to run a dairy in the sum mer and not in the winter canadian dairy producers have no diffi culty in holding their own in can ada and would have little difficulty in finding export markets in the summer months but in the winter they have not complete control of the home market and can not hope under present conditions to find ex port markets because the canadian winter is the new zealand summer and new zealand butter dominates world markets in the winter months to ship butter from western can ada to england costs over five cents a pound while to ship it from now zealand to england costs one and a half cent a pound little lean he done to correct this situation because the canadian haul is largely land and the new zealand haul practi cally all water tills situation ef fectively bars canadian butter from the british market of course the high american tarriff keeps our butter out of the united states in the winter our producers find that their costs increase by more than the cost of bringing butter from the southern hemisphere and they thus claim it is impossible to hold their home market in the cold months that is very sketohily the dairy mens story and the remedy they seek is chiefly the remedy that is usually sought in this country by in dustries that are not doing as well as they might namely higher tar iff protection and particularly in this instance revision of the aus tralian treaty which through order- incounoil gives special advantages to new zealand butter our dairy men state that if they could have the home market to themselves they would ask for nothing else tho additional 25000000 to 30000000 pounds of butter yearly that ihey would sell would be less important than the better prices that would re sult from the elimination of a dif ficult type of competition given the home market canadian dairy ing would be a profitable industry they claim but while we are considering all these unfavorable features of the situation we find that two holsteiu cowes in oxford county ontario are leompeting for world champion ship honors in milk production the owners probably do not worry much about foreign competition in butter the manner in which canada will win out in dairying is in careful and persistent building up of the finest herds of liry ciwh in the world to the end of inducing quality here is where the provincial and dominion departments of agri culture enter the picture they must provide leadership in educatlon and organization for a long time canada lagged behind in foreign trade because the department of trade and commerce was not on the job exploring roporting educating and encouraging under messrs low robb and malcolm there has been aggressive leadership that has aided us in our export trade boom what about tho department of agriculture and particularly the dairy branch gpbsgeityimi snappy specials r- in womens and childrens

dream by le ota gamble this interesting sunny little narra tive holds a moral that is worth con sideration all my life i had lived in a little ploding village where the days went noding by according to population we were only a hamlet but we called our collection of homes a village be cause it pleased us what did we care if the pssessor chose to draw a fine discrimination we simply let good enough alone we adopted the same easy remedy for anything that threatened to disturb us we let it alone for the days were long and sunny and the average dusky and sweet- scented one icould not walk down the one and only street of tho village without drawing in deep lungfuls of honeysuckle and lilac going past grandma moores rtinmbling old cot tage was like turning back in the book to anne hathaways pnai the cares of the outside world did not disturb us we were content to relegbite the russian question and the trouble in china the daily paper found its way into the village to the gentle mercies of the natives of those two particular countries for they had started the trouble themselves we supposed and so we drifted on kappy and well content iir our own community interests for each man iiad his ceam there was a blacksmith smeared with coaldust he could mend any thing or make anything it was his boast and he had always sustained it tiie harder the piece of work ho was given the more bland his expression became the more he belamed on his perfect finished product he was a dreamer in iron grandma moores hobby was flow ers chance summer tourists would invariably hftlt in their dusty pro gress to gaze at her rose cottage if they had walked around to the back yard they would have seen fat marigolds and prim old- fashioned hollyhocks nodding at the sun for all unconsciously this simple country woman believed with plato tlisit nature is divine art and thoso flowers were a part of her religion the young schoolteacher who taught the entire offspring of the vil lage was at once pathetic land noble pathetic in that one of her limbs was entirely paralysed and lijd to be dragged along as she walked and noble in her untiring efforts to promote sports and physical well- being p the children entrusted to her care no pupil ever stayed in at recess or after four in that school this time was religiously devoted to baseball football and all manner of sports she once told them their bodies are so strong and perfect now i love their sparkling eyes and smooth- muscles i must never deprive thorn of gods gooil sunshine and their splendid games that would bo saicrilege she was one ot tiie most successful teachers in the country if you looked at her percentage of promotions but i think her deeper success lay in in stilling into her pupils an apprecia tion of the beauty of their young bodies and it yielded her rich harvest of satisfaction and happiness i could toll you of many others in this little known dotonthemnp and could regale you for hours with a description of how each man rode his hobby but time files a great change came into my life i moved away to the big city at first the noise ot busy traffic sickened me and i longed for tho wholesomeslow- movlng life of the village but now i have come to undcrstiind this roar yet there is one thing about the city to which my mind will never wholly accustomed the host of tired expressionless fafces utterly devoid of dreams or imagination i sco them in every street fir in the crowded streets and at the lunch counters yes everywhere and those j faces trouble me for i can so clearly sec their need what they need is a dream a definite hobby on which toi nourish their souls the ideal ar rangements would be to incorporate the dream into the days work like the blacksmith or the school teacher of my little village but when this is impossible the dream must play the whole of side line perhaps you yourself have never thought ot the value of cultivating a dream perhaps you do not realize that it can be the most sustaining force in your life decide what your dream will be choose some dear in terest close to your heart and then tend it as carefully as a gardener would his narest flower your dream will grow and bud and liloom and the payment of it all the glory of it all is that what you put into your dream will return to you multifold the little school teacher with the paralysed limb became obsessed with the idea ot making tlvit limb perfect- it became her dream she swung that withered useless ap pendage massaged it and would not let it alone after six months the sleeping nerves began to tingle and were soon wide awake after four years of persvtriiico she walked beatlifully perfectly for ten years i have dreamed of an oldfashioned garden with lark spur and hollyhocks and a fern pond and a birds nest on a tall pole i have never ccasod to wonder at tho loveliness ot it now that it lias como follow your dreams go places and see things this summer georgian bay with its 30000 islands
